Title: VALPO game thread (So, at 6-4...)
Post by: Jay Bee on December 02, 2025, 06:21:20 PM
..after we mop the floor with Valpo, then 'upset' Becky on Saturday, we'll be 6-4.

I think at that point some will start looking back to earlier games and 'what could have been', but we'll be constantly reminded of the gap this year and it'll be a relatively rough one. Nonetheless, will be fun to win these next two.

I think for me what I'm curious about is .. how much PT and when for CH... and even more importantly DO.

We've played a number of teams with very high D-I experience (albeit low continuity, of which we rate 'elite'). Not so tonight. Lotsa youngsters for Valpo, and I'd like to see a convincing, start to finish stomping. #pray

Continuing to roll Caedin out there is bordering on malpractice.

Hopefully he turns the corner tonight but man.

So long as we keep starting Caedin, we have a chance to lose every game. Though I don't think it will happen tonight, it leaves the door open.

Shaka...what are we doing?

I couldn't at first, but then it showed up like two minutes after the game started. I do have ESPN in the bundle.

And...we stink

ugh. Wasn't surprising to see his start.

One thing I liked -- 16:08, Chase was on the bench to rest for the under 4... but the dookie shirts turned it over and Shaka put Chase in.

We wound up getting nada, but shows me maybe he ... not cares, but is worried, about winning. #pray

Have to make layups.    Period.  Those are gifts.

Hamilton just 0-1 on layups so far in this one. His best start of the season.

Don't get the parham hype. I could see him being a solid 6 th man or maybe a starter as an upper classman but he's been mediocre at best this year

I couldn't find it either but found it on the ESPN app.

I just realized I've reached the point of assuming shots, both 3's and 2's are not going in, no matter how open they are

OT: Did Shaka do a presser after Oklahoma?

C'mon boys, let's see some energy!

There's no current hype but after an All Big East freshman season I think it's pretty understandable people had high hopes going into the season, myself included.

The last two defensive possessions have answered my question about why Phillips doesn't play more
